Launching School Wide 5-2-1-0 Challenge

What is 5-2-1-0 you ask?  Attached is a handout about the challenge that we are pursuing beginning April 2.  For the month of April your child will be keeping track on a log that will be sent home.
Here is what 5-2-1-0 means:

5 - Eat more fruits and veggies  
Goal:  5 servings a day


2 - Keep screen time to a minimum  
Goal:  Less than 2 hours of screen time a day


1 - Be physically active for one hour a day  
Goal:  1 hour of movement a day


0 - Drink more water and less soda and juice  
Goal:  0 sugar sodas a day

Read the handout for more comprehensive information.  Encourage your child to keep track of his/her results!  You'll feel good, the kids will feel good and we all help to reduce diabetes and cancers!  HURRAY!
